In Class:
Checked for homework completion.
Pop quiz: define 'genre.' For extra credit, discuss the concept of 'generic imperative.'
Practiced lyrical and melodic composition through guided writing exercises.
Instruction in MLA Format, which will be applied to Part One of each student's final project. Note on the Summative Assessment Rubric that there will be no exceptions for mistakes in format, as instruction was provided in class. This is a common standard for college-level writing. Students are encouraged to ask the instructor to review format before officially submitting the paper; I am happy to help students earn these points toward their respective grades. The Purdue University Online Writing Lab is also a fantastic resource for answering MLA questions.

Homework:

Outlines for essays due on Thursday! You MUST write an outline, but you can use whatever format you want.
